• Portable Winch Solution for Master Lock Electric Winch
  We haven't carried that winch in some time but it was one that doesn't fit standard hitch winch mounting plates. Instead it was designed to attach directly to a hitch ball for an even easier portable type solution. So you could just bring a ball mount with you like the # DT49MR and it would be just as portable if not more.

• Should Ball Mount Be Flipped In Rise Position for 2004 4Runner Towing Winnebago
  Hey Dave! Although we don't carry the 21536 the Draw-Tite Ball Mount # DT49MR is almost identical. This has a 2" drop and a 3/4" rise when flipped over. Flipping the ball mount into the rise position will keep you close to/right at level with the little bit of rear sag you're experiencing. Any big trips coming up with your Winnebago?

• Will Draw-Tite 2 Inch Ball Mount Rattle Around in Hitch Receiver Opening
  Every hitch and drawbar will have some movement between them, it's unavoidable. Any manufactured product like a receiver hitch will have variances in its size. For instance, the Curt # 14090 Class IV hitch has a 2 inch receiver. The actual measurement of the inside of the receiver tube is usually a little larger than 2 inches. The outside dimension of the shank of a ball mount like the # DT49MR you'd looked like is typically a tiny bit smaller than 2 inches. If the inside dimension of...

• What Hitch and Ball Mount do You Recommend for My 2022 Subaru Outback Wagon?
  For towing with your 2022 Subaru Outback, a great hitch is the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - 2" # DT73RR.

• Ball Mount, Ball, and Hitch Pin to Use with Curt Hitch that Fits 2018 Subaru Outback Wagon
  When we had the Curt hitch # C13410 installed on a similar 2018 Subaru Outback Wagon as yours we found that from the top of the hitch opening down to the ground measured 15-1/2 inches. Since most trailer that your vehicle would tow would have a coupler height a couple inches shorter than that I would go with the Draw Tite ball mount part # DT49MR which has a 2 inch drop. This comes with a 2 inch ball which is a very common as well as a pin and clip to secure it.

• What Ball Mount and Coupler Is Needed For CE Smith Multi Sport Plus Boat and Kayak Trailer CE48870?
  The CE Smith Multi Sport Plus Boat and Kayak Trailer # CE48870 has a 2" ball coupler. It also requires a 4-way flat connector on your tow vehicle to operate the tail lights. The coupler has a height of 14" so you will need to ensure your ball mount has the correct amount of drop to tow level. If you measure the height to the inside of your receiver I can help you find the correct parts. The Draw-Tite Ball Mount w/ 2" Ball # DT49MR has a 2" drop and would fit with a 16" receiver height.

• What Is The Ball Height Of The Stealth Hitch SH62VR On A 2023 BMW X3
  We got our hands on a 2022 BMW X3 and successfully installed this hitch # SH62VR. The hitch height was measured at 13" from the ground to the top inside edge of the receiver. The ball will sit about 2" above that. You are correct, this ball is a fixed height. You CANNOT use the stealth hitch receiver with other ball mounts like # DT49MR for example. The stealth hitch receiver is not made for towing, and you must use the stealth hitch ball only. I am not sure what trailer you have, but...

• What Trailer do You Recommend to Transport My Emojo Caddy E-Trike and Additional E-Bike?
  I have a great transporting solution for you. I did some research on your Emojo Caddy Pro E-Trike, and we unfortunately do not have an option for this trike that will support the 90-pound (with battery) weight and allow you to mount your other e-bike.

The great thing about the Detail K2 Mighty trailer is that you can use the gate...

• Can You Flat Tow a 2020 Honda CR-V With a CVT Transmission
  The 2020 Honda CR-V Touring models are equipped with CVT style transmissions and should not be flat towed. I recommend using a tow dolly like the Roadmaster # RM-2050-1. It has a 4,250 pound capacity and adjustable tracks for the wheels on the CR-V. You would need a standard ball mount with a 2 inch ball to connect the tow dolly to the towing vehicle # DT49MR and a brake controller to activate the electric brakes. I suggest the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 # 90195, but you will need to contact...
